Dear all,

I'm using Mail for Exchange on my Nokia N9 to connect to Google.

Do you understand which impact the "End of Life" announcement (see link below) for their Google Sync service will have on our favourite device?

Do I need to switch to IMAP and CalDAV for future sync with Google?

Thanks and regards

Is there any alternative to MfE for syncing contacts with google?

They do say existing devices will continue to function. Hopefully if you need to reflash, and restore account settings from a backup it will still work. But if you delete and recreate a MfE account to solve problems as mentioned above, will it no longer work?

Also, they say
Google Sync will continue to be fully supported for Google Apps for Business, Government and Education users who are unaffected
Does this include my free legacy google apps account?

Backup should work fine, but I don't think that after account re-creation you'll be able to sync it with google Of course it will depend on the Goggle's implementation on the server side, but most probably they will consider that this new account is trying to sync it self from a "different device", so server will reject the connection.

So Sergey if MfE is taken out for Google contacts can't the regular Google account option be expanded to include instead of just Google Talk contacts but all Google contacts?


Also, a huge thank you for still staying around to help us

I can't imagine what should be the unique device identifier to check from server side. They shouldn't be able to catch your IMEI or similar?!
Thus I rather guess that you won't be able to enable Google Sync in the future for GMail accounts where it wasn't enabled so far (unless you pay for it via Google Business Apps).
Means, you will loose existing functionality in case that you change your sync to another non-enabled GMail account.
I hope so...

*sigh*

It's such a pity the n9 didn't get CardDAV support.

I'm having trouble with MfE. When I first got the phone (last Thursday), all the details synced with my gmail account. I flashed PR1.3 (no update for the region), and now it won't sync all the contact details. I ended up in a bit of a pickle at a meeting today, when I was sure I had someone's number. Luckily, I had my tablet with me. Is there any possible fix or workaround to this?

Plus, I know this is reaching a bit, is there a way to force one-way syncing (from server-to-phone)? I noticed it all my merged contacts on the tablet unmerged :/

The following package is based on the source from Ovek (http://people.debian.org/~ovek/harmattan/). I just enabled dav support!
syncevolution_1.2.2-1_armel.deb... http://ul.to/j5wwxjd7

I did the following steps to sync with ownCloud 4.0.4. I don't know if there's a better way to configure syncevolution, but at least it seems to work .

DISCLAIMER / WARNING:
You shoud first create a backup of your N9 calendar and addressbook!!! Don't blame me if you loose your data.

Code:
syncevolution --configure --template WebDAV username=MYNAME password=MYPASS  syncURL=http://MY.DOMAIN.TLD/owncloud/remote.php/ target-config@owncloud
MYNAME = ownCloud login name
MYPASS = ownCLoud password
MY.DOMAIN.TLD = domainname
@owncloud = identifier (maybe replaced with some other name. Important is that it is consistent within the whole configuration!)

If you are using ssl access with a selfsigned certificate, you'll have to use the following code instead:
Code:
syncevolution --configure --template WebDAV username=MYNAME password=MYPASS SSLVerifyServer=0 syncURL=https://MY.DOMAIN.TLD/owncloud/remote.php/ target-config@owncloud
CALDAV sync:
Code:
syncevolution --configure database=https://MY.DOMAIN.TLD/owncloud/remote.php/caldav/calendars/MYNAME/CALNAME/ backend=caldav target-config@owncloud mycalendar
https vs. http = change this according to the URL you are using
CALNAME = Name of your ownCloud calendar.
mycalendar = identifier for this caldav sync.

Code:
syncevolution --configure --template SyncEvolution_Client sync=none syncURL=local://@owncloud username= password= owncloud
Don't enter any credentials! username/password must be empty.
owncloud = identifier...

Code:
syncevolution --configure sync=two-way backend=calendar database=N9calendar owncloud mycalendar
N9calendar = calendarname of your N9 (empty for default calendar!)

First sync [only first sync]:
Code:
syncevolution --sync slow owncloud mycalendar
Later on you should remove "--sync slow":
Code:
syncevolution owncloud mycalendar

CARDDAV sync:

Code:
syncevolution --configure database=https://MY.DOMAIN.TLD/owncloud/remote.php/carddav/addressbooks/MYNAME/ADDNAME/ backend=carddav target-config@owncloud myaddressbook
https vs. http = change this according to the URL you are using
ADDNAME = Name of ownCloud calendar
myaddressbook = identifier

This can be skipped if done already for caldav sync:
Code:
syncevolution --configure --template SyncEvolution_Client sync=none syncURL=local://@owncloud username= password= owncloud
Don't enter any credentials! username/password must be empty.
owncloud = identifier...

Code:
syncevolution --configure sync=two-way backend=addressbook database= owncloud myaddressbook
First sync [only first sync]:
Code:
syncevolution --sync slow owncloud myaddressbook
Later on you should remove "--sync slow":
Code:
syncevolution owncloud myaddressbook

Hope that helps... (sorry for the bad text/layout structure, but I'm running out of time atm). Maybe someone else wants to put this in a proper wiki.
Original thread is here: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=85394

Is ths method possible with google carddav and caldav? And how exactly (a little easier guide to follow)?

P.S. Interesting line from https://syncevolution.org/documentat...onization-guis

SyncEvolution GUI
SyncEvolution has a synchronization GUI, which is installed on MeeGo 1.2 as the ‘Sync’ application: http://help.meego.com/netbook/sync/about-syncing
Is it possible porting it to Harmattan?

it is ported to harmattan, but no official GUI

http://people.debian.org/~ovek/harmattan/

if you can't live without GUI, you may want to try this after installing syncevolution

http://www.ruinelli.ch/harmattan/syncevolution-gui

I am thinking of hosting this on my own server to sync my contacts/calendars from google

https://github.com/xbgmsharp/sogosync

so I can still sync using MfE using my N9
